If you order it anyway, say this (Hindi)
कृपया कन्फर्म करें कि इसमें आलू या आटे जैसा कोई गाढ़ा करने वाला पदार्थ नहीं है, और चीनी भी नहीं है। क्या इसमें ज़्यादा नारियल और कम प्याज़ मिल सकता है?
Please confirm no starchy thickeners like potato or flour, and no added sugar. Could I get more coconut and less onion?
Watch out for
Starchy thickeners (potato, flour), hidden sugars, quantity of onions, poppy seeds (in large quantities).
